“For twenty five years, one belief hasn’t changed: fluency isn’t about knowing more words — it’s about feeling free to use them.
Maya Learning coach
I became a teacher because I kept meeting brilliant people who went quiet the moment they had to speak English — not because they lacked the words, but because no one had ever made them feel safe enough to use them.
So I built my lessons around the opposite feeling. We talk from the very first session. I listen first, learn what English really means for your life — a band score, a promotion, a conversation you’ve been avoiding — and design a roadmap around exactly that. No two students get the same plan.
Today I teach online to students all over the world, and in person at my conversation workshops in Istanbul cafés. The setting changes; the goal never does — to help you sound like yourself, in English.
